Just got home from completing run 2 of week 6 😊 the last 5 minutes seem to get me but other than that it was a good run 😊 also...Mr Johnson was nice & quiet today & didnt keep banging on about whether or not i was TIRED or EXHAUSTED & whether ir not i WANTED TO STOP...which was very helpful.whenever he says those things i automatically feel TIRED & EXHAUSTED & indeed do very much WANT TO STOP!!!!

As the runs get longer the coaches comments become more infrequent. I know what you ean about the comments though. I remeber being in a lovely place on one of my runs (W7?) when he piped up and told me I had 5 mins left to run. My reverie burst, coordination went to pot, and I felt like I could'nt go on another step. Longest last five minutes. If he had just let me run, it would have been fine.

Just listen to that sexy, molasses voice and ignore what he’s saying. Better still, when he tells you you must be tired, imagine him in a frilly apron and nothing else, doing your hoovering and feeding you chocolates by hand.
